The role of a Medical Coder has evolved over the past several decades and the demand for comprehensively skilled certified coders has never been higher.
Medical Coders are the gateway between patient care encounters and information used for Reimbursement, Quality, Regulatory and Compliance, and more.
Risk Adjustment (sometimes referred to as HCC Coding) has evolved to a critical process in the finance of healthcare, measuring and directing Quality in the delivery of healthcare to nearly all health populations, and after many years is now filtering down to the provider level as an essential consideration for all providers in the documentation and reporting of healthcare encounters.
The 3 Major Payer categories of Medicare, Commercial, and Medicaid all rely on Risk Adjustment for the finance of healthcare and the delivery of quality care. Risk Adjustment is applied differently based on the payer category yet there are common considerations such as Regulatory Compliance, Standards of Documentation, Complete and accurate code assignment to the highest level of specificity, and other guidelines that are critical to understand and adhere to.
Medical Providers are being held to standards that require thorough understanding of Risk Adjustment methodologies. An increase in industry requirements surrounding Quality, Documentation, Coding Accuracy, and contractual or participation obligations with payers is resulting in millions of medical providers needing professionals knowledgeable in Risk Adjustment.
